With a new remix out this week Nick Warren favourite Tripswitch checks in for the latest episode of What’s In Your Box.
1. Luka Sambe โ Sooti EP – Armadillo
Guy Jโs new imprint Armadillo has brought us some very interesting and beautiful music in its first few releases, this one is no different. 3 pristine electronica tracks from one of my favourite artists of the moment. Iโm lucky to have a release lined up for my new label onedotsixtwo from Luka and fellow Aussie Filterbear, watch this space for that soon.
2. Orsen โ Through The Woods โ Replug
Cid Incโs skill as a tastemaker is evident in how the Replug sound has been shaped. This is yet another classy release that oozes quality and an understanding of the dancefloor.
3. Miraculum โ Lush Garden โ Slideways
Super melodic and widescreen, this one. The use of delays to create a fluttery maelstrom of sound is very much my bag.
4. Chromatics โ Shadow (Madloch Remix) โ white label
I love Chromatics and got very excited when they popped up at the Twin Peaks Roadhouse in The Return. Then this white label remix from Madloch dropped into my inbox and I practically wet myself. Itโs a free download from the Progressive Astronaut Soundcloud so go grab it while itโs hot!

5. Resonance โ Light Continuum (Live Mix) โ Univack Records
Epic, dark, driving and swirly, with a great indie vocal. Melodically itโs really simple but the production and spatial treatment combine with a really heavy bassline to create something really powerful.
6. Assonances โ Evals (Petar Dundov Remix) โ Abstract Theory
This stunning remix is a true progressive journey which Iโm still playing a few months after release. Makes my mind travel places and gives me the kind of smile that I used to get from tracks like Space Manoeuvres or Xpander. Classic.
7. Luttrell โ Donโt Forget To Breathe – Anjunadeep
Another slightly older one โฆ Iโm a sucker for the big orchestral breakdown, and Luttrell has crafted a corker on this one, along with the most elegant of tribal beats. Pure ecstasy euphoria in this track.
8. Forerunners โ Watercolour โ Pure Progressive
Really nice momentum on this track, itโs fresh out last month but again gives me those old school progressive goosebumbs ร la late 90s/early 2000s. Vive la progressive revival!
9. Anton Dhouran – Misty Mountain โ The Soundgarden
Nick Warrenโs Soundgarden on form again with a lush, laid back release that brings an intelligent edge to the dancefloor.
10. Michael & Levan and Stiven Rivic โ Trespassing (Tripswitch Remix) – Kunai
Had to get one of mine in there! This oneโs proved to be a high point in my sets this summer, and sits alongside great remixes (and the original) from Framewerk and Lonya & Maydan. Out last week on Kunai!
